Rainshower CQ1000
(Bath
Ball
- bottom of page)
The Rainshower shower filter specially formulated
KDF filter media effectively removes 90% or more of chlorine from shower
water. And it is the only Shower Filter to Include Crystalline Quartz
Technology for an Energized Shower Experience!
The specially-cured crystals in the Rainshower CQ-1000 act upon the
water to create a softer, more energized shower "feel" and improve both
lathering and sudsing.
Unlike other de-chlorinating shower filters, Rainshower CQ-1000 shower
filter is specifically engineered for efficiency and performance. Its
unique filter design provides the best shower experience available for
you and your family.

Information on the Harmful Effects of Chlorine
Plus a Must Read -
Hidden
Dangers of your Morning Shower
"A long, hot shower can be
dangerous.
The toxic chemicals are inhaled in high concentrations."
Dr. John Andelman, PhD.,
Bottom Line, 8/87
You deserve healthier water in every aspect of your
daily life, not just your drinking water. The Rainshow'r CQ-1000
dechlorinating shower filter provides a long lasting solution to the
problems associated with exposure to excessive amounts of chlorine. Once
in contact with the KDF, chlorine in the water converts into an
environmentally safe and harmless soluble zinc chloride. Because of this
superior chlorine removal, you will see changes in the way your hair and
skin feel, including...
...healthier, younger-looking skin
...softer, more manageable hair
...relief from dry skin and scalp
...less fading on color-treated hair
How Does KDF Work in Removing Chlorine?
As chlorinated water flows through the shower filter unit, the
dissimilar metals in KDF (copper and zinc), create a galvanic or
electrolytic reaction which causes the two chlorine ions to combine with
a zinc ion to form a harmless zinc chloride. KDF does not hold the
chlorine, it changes chlorine from an element into a harmless compound.
What is Enhanced KDF?
Enhanced KDF is Rainshower's special formulation of two different
types of KDF-55. It is 10% more effective per ounce than granular KDF
alone. This combination provides a better performance per ounce of media
than other shower filters.
How Much KDF is in the Filter?
There are 14 ounces of enhanced KDF in each CQ-1000 cartridge.
Rainshower's enhanced formula gives the performance effectiveness of
15-1/2 ounces of non-enhanced media.
What is the Advantage of Crystalline Quartz?
Rainshower's specially washed and sun-dried quartz crystals help to
"energize" the water by reducing the water's surface tension. This
allows for an increase in sudsing and lathering of soaps and shampoos.
The water has a "lighter" feel, similar to the feeling of softened
water.
What is Zeolite?
Zeolite is a natural earth mineral used for many years as a
contaminant absorbing material in the water softening industry. We use
it as a contaminate absorber and a particulate trapping media. This
action lessens the negative effect of waterborne contaminants on the
enhanced KDF de-chlorinating media. It extends the performance life of
the enhanced KDF.
Are any Ingredients Harmful or Toxic?
No. KDF and zeolite are commonly used in drinking water and water
treatment systems. The virgin crystalline quartz is washed and
sun-cured.
How much Chlorine will the Shower Filter
Remove?
The CQ-1000 will typically remove more than 90% of the free
chlorine. Reduction levels of 95% or above are not uncommon, but no
chlorine reduction shower filter can remove consistently at 95% because
of temperature and water flow variations.
How do you
Address Water Quality?
The cleaner your water the longer and more efficient the filter will
be. If heavy levels of sediment and particulate matter are present in
the water the KDF media can become clogged making it more difficult to
create the electrolytic reaction required for dechlorination. Some
sediment and turbidity will inevitably enter the CQ-1000, however, it is
specifically designed to minimize the effects with it's special
high-flow filter pad and the contaminate trapping chamber.
Do you
have to Back Flush the Filter?
No. The CQ-1000 jet cone has been designed to eliminate the need for
back flushing.
Will the CQ-1000 Remove Lead or Other Heavy Metals?
There is no conclusive data to date that KDF can remove lead or
other metals when used in shower filters. While KDF has been proven to
remove lead and other metals under specific conditions, those conditions
are very different from those present in shower filters. No tests have
yet been done on high flow rates in short bodied filters, such as with a
2 to 3 inch shower filter.
How Long will the CQ-1000 Last and How Many
Gallons Will it Filter?
The ability of any KDF shower filter to reduce chlorine is a
function of the quality of the water (i.e. sediment and turbidity
levels). As a result, it is difficult to measure precisely in gallons of
water. KDF will de-chlorinate longer in clean water than in murky water.
While it is difficult to measure precisely, we can estimate average
usefulness. We expect that the CQ-1000 filter cartridge will have an
effective life of nine to twelve months for a family of four, or an
estimated 15,000 to 20,000 gallons of usage. The CQ-1000 body should
last for several years with proper care.
How Many Gallons will the CQ-1000 Filter per Minute?
This depends on the shower head attached. The CQ-1000 has been
designed and engineered to work most effectively with high quality,
low-flow shower heads which conform to the required 2.25 gallons per
minute flow rate specified by the U.S. Energy Policy Act of 1992. If
flow rates exceed 2.25 gpm, the contact time required for maximum
chlorine conversion will be reduced. For this reason, we recommend only
high quality, low flow shower heads for any shower filter application.
Can I Use My Own Shower Head with the CQ-1000?
Yes, you can use your own shower head. Use on a good quality, low
flow shower head that has been purchased since 1995. This guarantees
conformity to the U.S. Energy Policy Act and that you have a water
delivery at no more than 2.25 gpm at 80 psi.
Is the CQ-1000 Easy to Install?
Yes, simply screw the filter inlet onto your existing shower arm. It
does not require the use of a plumber's tape for lead sealing. It must
be hand tightened only.
Is the CQ-1000 Filter Cartridge Easy to
Replace?
Yes, simply unscrew the body cap. pull out the existing filter
cartridge, check for proper seating of the "O" rings and pop in the
replacement cartridge.

When water comes in contact with the
media filaments inside the fabric pouch, the chlorine ions in the water
are converted into harmless zinc chloride. The toxic effects of
chlorine, chloramine, and chlorine gas are eliminated with the aid of
KDF Formula 73. More chlorine is removed faster if there is adequate
circulation of the Crystal Ball in the water. The quartz crystals mixed
with the media reduce the molecular structure of water into smaller
clusters, thereby allowing enhanced sudsing and lathering of soap.

Living Water in nature often begins with
melting glacial water. The glacial water absorbs minerals and ionizes
with glacier friction and rapidly flowing water. It is this water that
the Hunza attribute their long healthy lives to bearing children
in their 80's and living with little or no disease!
